I have a follow up question to this, does this mean the grab-bags will only be metal (once all the PVC are sold)? Because I've been thinking of getting a grab bag, but I don't want to spend an extra 10$ to ensure it's metal, is it the only option now?

Agreed completely, for 5 extra dollars who wouldn't get a metal saber? I think they should be gone for good...

But the PVC just don't have the same effect on the user and the audience as the metal ones, I did like some of the designs but would they not be cooler if they were metal?

I think the only one i really liked was the curved hilt. I'm waiting for a metal curved hilt. I have a feeling ultra will be doing that soon.

Meditate on this, you must. But yeah, I think it'll be the next hilt released after the War Glaive, very popular in the saber community.

I think if they use the War Glaive as a way to perfect their hilt claw designs, a curved hilt with optional claws would be a pretty good homage to the Dooku hilt, on top of adding a good amount of customization possibilities.

That's what I'm looking forward to, the limitless possibilities of customization, right now I'm limited to tape and very minute amounts of metal work

I had just decided to buy a Blazing orange Omen and US discontinue PVC hilts. Granted I much prefer the metal hilts (Omen was only PVC I did like) but PVCs did have one advantage: they were insulators so wouldn't sap the heat from your hands and cause frost burns when fighting in sub-zero temperatures.
What do you think the chances are of a metal Omen? Slim I would think with the War glaive waiting in the wings. I loved the way the Omen came with an extra-long, extra-heavy blade as standard. Another option would be to make a custom pommel, similar to the couplers that would plug into a blade holder so you could turn a battlestaff into a two hander, but doubt there would be much of a market unless you think otherwise?
